ideals of happiness people cherish,
and in what singular places they look
for this well-spring of their life.

a few seek it in the exploration of their own minds,
or in search for knowledge.

have caviar for breakfast and oatmeal for dinner,
wear a purple coat with a red hat - dance lightly with life.
